Job description

Executive Assistant to the CEO

Part-time and in person. Open to students at any New Haven area school.

Front row on AI

Most students use AI to finish assignments. A smaller group uses it to build things. Almost nobody your age uses it to run a company.

That last one is this job.

GPC is an AI transformation firm in New Haven. We teach mid-market companies how to work with AI until they cannot remember running without it. Our partners are seafood distributors, manufacturers, construction firms, agencies. Companies with real revenue, real payroll, and nobody on staff who knows what a model can do. Grant Hushek runs operations and fulfillment here. He is also still in the room on the consulting work. That is the problem you solve.

You will sit next to a CEO while a company grows underneath him. Not watching it. Carrying pieces of it. You will protect his time, hold the open decisions, bring them to him, watch him decide, then make those decisions real across the CRM, the project boards, the team, and the people waiting on answers.

You will also handle the logistics that should never require a CEO’s attention in the first place. Meetings get scheduled. Flights get booked. The restaurant reservation exists. He has the document he needs before he walks into the room. The small things happen without him having to think about them.

The models will be in your hands every day. Not as a writing tool. As the thing you build with.

You cannot get this from a case study.

What you will actually do

Grant gets pulled in from every direction. Slack, ClickUp chat, email, partner calls, hallway conversations, dinner. Most of what reaches him needs either a decision, a response, or coordination. Right now those things queue up in his head and some of them fall out. Your job is to catch every one, hold it, and bring it back to him in a single organized pass.

You are in the room with him three days a week. You bring the list. You record the conversation. He decides. You leave with the recording and turn it into action: the draft, the message, the task, the update, the follow-up to the person who has been waiting since Tuesday. He juggles. You juggle. He throws, you catch, you throw
